## What is WristInk Chinese?

Trace every stroke. Make Chinese characters stick in your hand, not just your head.

WristInk turns learning Chinese into something you do, not something you read. You trace each character stroke by stroke, in the correct order, on accurate stroke geometry that corrects your direction and sequence in real time. It’s how you build genuine handwriting muscle memory.

TRACE IT RIGHT

* Standard stroke-order animations with live, per-stroke feedback
* Stroke scoring that flags reversed or out-of-order strokes
* Pinyin, meanings, and radical breakdowns so you see how a character is built from its parts

FROM BEGINNER TO ALL OF HSK

* Free: 150 high-frequency characters plus themed starter packs (Numbers, Getting Around, Family, Food and Drink)
* Pro unlocks the complete HSK 3.0 set: the official 3-tier, 9-level standard with 3,000 characters
* Characters ordered from fewest strokes to most, so you ramp up gradually

SMART REVIEW, NOT ROTE MEMORIZATION

* Built-in spaced repetition (SRS) automatically queues what you’re due to review today
* Practice mode and Flashcard mode for tracing and recall together
* Free Practice: no goals, just drill any character you want
* Daily streaks, progress, and full practice history at a glance

PRACTICE RIGHT FROM YOUR APPLE WATCH

* Standalone Apple Watch app: raise your wrist and trace
* Haptic stroke guidance taps your wrist as each new character begins and each stroke registers
* Watch widgets to jump straight back into practice
* iPhone and Watch stay in sync; even your custom character sets come along

PRIVACY FIRST
